Instructions

1. Lightly toast the almonds, walnuts and hazelnuts in the oven at 170 °C for 8 minutes, then leave them to cool completely.
2. Blend the dried fruits with the caster sugar until you have a fine powder, taking care not to turn it into a greasy paste.
3. Warm the butter with the honey in a small saucepan, without letting it boil.
4. In a bowl, mix the fruit powder, cinnamon and orange zest.
5. Add the egg whites, the honey butter and the orange blossom water, then knead until you have a soft, smooth dough.
6. Shape into small balls or diamonds about 3 cm across and roll them in icing sugar.
7. Decorate with chopped pistachios if you like and chill for 2 hours before serving.
